Abstract

The support (1) has an upper cathedral carrier (1.3) connected with an A-shaped column (3) of a motor vehicle. The upper carrier overlaps a guiding point (M) from top, and comprises an opened U-shaped profile, and a recess is formed on a bottom of the profile for guiding an upper end of a spring strut. Strengthening ribs are formed in the U-shaped profile, and are connected with bottom and/or side walls of the profile. A lower cathedral carrier (1.2) comprises an angle flange (1.6) for a form-fit support to a longitudinal carrier (2) at its end facing the longitudinal carrier. An independent claim is also included for a spring strut support arrangement with two spring strut supports comprising a cross unit.
